Battery is charging while discharging

I was transferring some files from my pc to my phone just now. After i done and unplugged my usb from the phone,my battery was 81%. then after some time using it,i realized that the battery wasnt dropping (happy, but weird)
Here is a screenshot of my battery usage,im uploading this using my phone.this is after i reboot my phone.u can see that the green line,indicating that my phone was supposed to be charging. The battery start to act normal after i reboot.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal n what might caused this? Coz if this is a good thing, i dont mind if it happen again

Hit Thanks if i helped..

Happened to me last week.
Problem is that charging by USB is bad because its alot slower than by plug.
I was gaining power but loading it at the same time so in turn it only stayed on 47% all the time.
Weird

yeah...thats why i was wondering whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. if its a good thing, maybe our x8 can get "the ultimate battery".
it just need one recharge and it is good to go forever..

Yep!
One rule:
Never charge VIA USB! Its about 1% p/10mins
Always charge by plug! 9-10% p/10mins
MUCH BETTER!
Leave a thanks if I helped!

[Q] Is this a "bricked" Note?

Hey every1!
I was hoping that my first post here would be something more funny then this... But... you can´t always get what you wan´t.
My problem... My note is completly dead!
I was messing around with editing some pictures i just took on the kids when my phone just frooze... I then held the powerbutton for about 15sec before it died. After that... stonedead!
No matter what i do with it, it´s just black and doesn´t respond to anything.
- Had 20+% battery in it when it frooze, i´ve tried to charge it but no difference.
- Had the battery pulled for 30mins+ , no change.
- Can´t get to recovery mode whatever i do.
- Connected it do the computer, no sound no nuttin.
The phone is/was rooted, running rocketrom V.20 with abyssnote kernel 3.3 when it died.
Haven´t had any issues with it until now.
So... Any ideas on what i should try next? Besides using it as a really expensive paperweight that is
HELP!! =)

dude dont worry , may be you need to charge your mobile then turn it on ( i hope it's just battery dead)

Hold the power button for 30 seconds or more just to be sure it's resetting

Not OC no... undervolted thoo... but have been running the same UV setting for 3 weeks.

Must be hardware problem, no doubt about it.

Try charging it for a while and then press the power button for 10-20 seconds.
Hope it's that simple! Good luck!

Well... Been charging the brick overnight (12+ hours), and still not a single sign of life.
I guess there's nuttin more to it then to return it.
Hopefully they won't notice the root and custom rom and kernel, i meen... It's completly dead so it shouldn't be a problem right?!

If you find, try other battery once.
- Use JIG
Switch off your phone and take out the battery for 15-20 seconds
Install the battery back but DO NOT turn it on
Plug this USB JIG DONGLE into the micro-USB port of the phone
Wait for a few seconds. You should see the Download Mode logo on the screen.
Unplug the module.

If i had a jig i would have tried that for sure. However, i got fed up on trying so it's now returned to the store and sent away for service.
Ty every1 for ur efforts with trying to aid me!

I would be interested to see what Samsung say if they noticed the root... might make me think twice about rooting it on such a expensive device. Good luck though!

Hey!
Yes, great news actually!
I got it back like 5 days ago...
And, it was the main circuit board that had faulted! That ment they couldn´t get the info of it ,or atleast they decided that it would be to much trouble to do so.
So it´s now back and running again... rooted, running RR v22 and franco kernel v6
Didn´t cost me anything
Hopefully it won´t happen again thoo... I can´t be without it anymore! Used my old 3gs when it was on service... goddam hated it!

First and for most I want to congratulate you on having your phone back & fully functional again. I too am in the same situation right now where my phone is hard bricked and can't turn on in any shape or form. I sen't it to a local shop to fix who do Jtag for this phone but say they can't get it to start. I wanted to know when you said "the main circuit board that had faulted" did they replace any parts? or just flash software with JTag again? Any help would be really appreciated.

Did yummy take out the battery and then insert it and den did yu try booting it up????
press thanx if I helped yu sent from sga

OG SGT won't charge

My Fiancée has been using my SGT since I got my Flyer last year, and has had no problems until recently. A few days ago, it stopped taking a charge altogether. It says it's charging, but is stuck at 8%.
I'm wondering if any one else has experienced this, and if it can be corrected without a factory reset (she doesn't want to lose progress in her apps, and won't let me root because I soft bricked it soon after I got it, and couldn't find the fix for a month.)
I know the fix is probably a factory reset... Can someone please remind me how to get into stock recovery to clear the cache? I can't remember the key combination.
Most likely I'll have to root it, and back up all her junk, factory reset, and leave it on a stock rooted rom (I'll just tell her I unrooted... Lol)
I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu...

Thanks, hadn't had to do that in a while... I thought about it, and I don't think I'd even be able to root/flash with 8% battery... Any thoughts on how I could pull this off?

root is quick.
flash may take a while.
but depending on how good is the charge holding. 8% may still pull it.

One thing you might want to try is to turn your tab off completely and let it charge. Once you figure out how to root, you can try battery calibration app. It may fix ur prob. Worst case you may need new cable/adapter/battery.

I did that actually, and no difference in result... I'm hoping I don't need to replace the battery...
Does the bootstrap app still work? Thats how I rooted originally, but I think it was still on froyo?
I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu...
http://android-gz.com

well, this is how i solved it...
if it's rooted...
use battery calibrator....
or keep tab switched off for 4 hours or so...and then connect it to charger while switched off
if this also doesn't help then after connecting to charger while it's still off you can see a battery icon charging...simultaneously press switch on button and touch the screen ....if on aokp rom your tab will instantly reboot as i've noticed....if on stock rom which i was on when this thing happened to me....your tab will show a black screen and then again the battery charging icon shoots up....
One of the above things worked for me....i was enjoying my vacations when i encountered this problem and so i cannot remember exactly which of these things worked....
Hit thanks if i've helped..

calibrate your battery.. use third apps on play store

Thanks guys, but it's not rooted...
So I was about to factory reset it, and took the SD out, then decided to wait so that I could at least copy the files from the internal to my laptop to give her SOMETHING back... I went back a few hours later, and it had a 73% charge... I don't know what it was, but somehow, taking the SD out, and putting it back in fixed the problem...
I think I'm still gonna root it for safety's sake, but it's still taking a charge, and is up to 80% now...

Keep an eye on it
My tab also suddenly started charging....but after an increase of about 20% or so it again stuck....many people here got this problem....
Did u try the other two solutions.......try them......one of these three things worked for me and after that I never had this problem...

[Q] Heavy battery drain when on charger

Hi there!
Ok so recently my Cappy has decided its going to be screwy. For some reason if I plug it in to charge, it doesn't charge, instead I get a battery drain 5-7% within about 20 mins. I've tried 5 different cables (Zip cord, walmart one, random ones I found/borrowed, one staright plug in one not usb) and 5 different chargers (car/wall plugin hybrid, apple wall charge two different computers.) and its all the same result. I can still use it as a USB no problem, moved some files around and removed and added soem photos no problem. There is no issue with the port itself (on the outside) my cover snapped off but I make sure to keep it clean.
I also have no odd battery draining I can usually get about 12-14 hours out of it. No out of place wakelocks, no apps running wild, and all my backups are on the cloud or on my laptop. Only thing I could think this is is a hardware issue. That or its just time to get a new phone. Thankfully I have an external battery charger and I've just been switching out batteries.
Any thoughts?

My guess is that you need a new battery.
Does it show the charging animation? Also, when plugged to the pc, does fast charge help at all?

Does it charge when the phone is turned off?

That's just it, I bought 2 new batteries, RavPower ones. They work great and last forever when I charge. My original battery and my cheap one off ebay do the same.
And yes it shows the charging thing, by battery monitor says it's charging and shows the different kinds like a/c or usb, everything acts as it should just no charging.
I have never tried the fast charge, I forgot I even had that. I'll give it a shot.

Also are you OC'ing or changing the Voltages? Probably won't make a difference in this issue but worth looking into. My Cappy refuses to OC at all, even at 102% it starts to act weird (System UI crashes sometimes, I lose signal, etc).

I actually have mine stable at 110% still don't know how lol. Cappys seem to be very picky. I'll try turning it back down.

Apparently Samsung's hardware consistency control was lacking when the Captivate was made, so that's why they're so picky, which sucks for any kind of troubleshooting or development.
I wish I could get my Cappy to 110%. But try turning it back to 100% see if that changes anything. Also does this happen on multiple ROMs or just the one you're currently on (probably not the issue but hey I've seen weirder).

Got it, off-topic but any reason you haven't gone to Slim build 4? I saw slight improvement in performance on my Cappy. Was my daily driver until this morning when I flashed C-Rom v16, which for me is as fast. Just trying to get used to how big everything is compared to Slim, I liked being able to read about 7-8 messages in the messaging app, but now I can only see about 3 lol.

Sorry x3 was a smiley not a build number, I'm on 4.2.
Anyways! I let my phone charge while off for about an hour. It was at 49% turned it back on and it was at 23% see what I mean? That's a crazy amount of juice.
Also, yeah I did play around with some other ROMs and I hated how big they all are, I like how small everything is on Slim. It just works better for me. X3

I don't understand why it's DRAINING your battery instead of charging it. Seems like something got reversed?

I'll try not to use it so you don't get confused. Its just habit.
I don't either. I really did see much on hardware issues that would drain it like this. I really am stumped by this.
And recently I did flash back to stock and work my way back up to Slim to see if it would help and it didn't. I didn't think to see if it would charge on stock or CM 10 but if it really came down to it I guess I could flash back to stock and play with it. Only reason I don't think it's the ROM is because to my knowledge no one else is having this particular issue.
If you have anything I can do to test or provide info just ask. I'll do whatever is needed to help figure it out. And I'd really like to as I'll have this phone for a bit longer then I thought so I'd like to see it fixed

Do you have a battery charger? Like one that you just attach the battery to, to charge it. We could then see if it's your batteries (highly doubt) or your cappy (99.999% sure).
I don't really want to suggest checking with multi-meters only because the phone internals would be exposed while it's on and if you're not used to working with hardware like that you could accidentally short something etc.
Why not make a nandroid, flash to CM10, see what happens with your battery then. That way, if you ever need to go back to your current ROM you could just restore it.

Yeah I do, it's what I've been doing to keep using my phone, I've had this problem for a month now. I think.
It was suggested I open up the phone and check the charge port, make sure it's clean, that kinda stuff but I don't want to do that unless I'm absolutely 100% sure it's not something else.
Wouldn't hurt. I'll go try it. Thanks for being so helpful. :3

Huzzah! Well, I got CM loaded, did a full wipe too. Everything looks so big. I'll report back in an hour or two. :3
EDIT
And its charging!
I guess it is in fact the ROM. Dang. I wonder why?
I'm going to see if I can get this to charge fully before bringing it to the SlimBean thread. Just to be extra sure.
EDIT
It seems to get to around 30% (31% as of now) and it just stops. It won't charge any higher. Been like that for about 45 mins.
And EDIT again. x3
Ok so I (still on CM10) couldn't get it go charge past 30% so I decided, I'm gonna poke around and I thought back on the fast charge, I wondered if it had an app, I managed to find one (Fast Battery Charging x2) and ITS CHARGING! I downloaded another app before this called Battery Mix, I love it as it has awesome battery graphs, anyways before I used Fast Battery Charging x2 it (Battery Mix) didn't have any stats on how long it would take to charge, now it does, says about 3 hrs to full, so we shall see where it goes. I don't know how the app works but I will wait and see. If this works I'll hop back to Slim and see if I can't make it work there. I don't know if it will though.
EDIT:
Got to 100%, going to flash back to Slim and see if I can't get it to charge there with the setup in CM 10 I have now, if I doesn't then I guess it must be Slim?
Edit!
Alright so back to Slim and the best I could muster is to keep my battery level the same over night. I tried using the phone for a bit and the battery drain happened again. Overnight I had nothing installed aside from gapps.

Hm...So CM10 w/ fast charge seemed to work, but when you went back to Slim the problem re-appeared? That's extremely odd. I reverted back to Slim 4.2 when C-Rom v16 was slowing down, just dirty restored and charging isn't an issue. Have you tried C-Rom v16? It's based off of Slim Rom I think.
Try it I guess, lets see if it's any other custom CM10 based ROMs. This seems like such an odd issue...

Yeah, C-Rom worked great. Charged and everything. I ended up going back to Slim due to my power button being stupid again. It goes in and out and I couldn't find an option to do volume rocker wake on C-Rom so I switched back to Slim.
Its the weirdest thing. I don't even care about fixing it anymore as just figuring out the puzzle. X3

Haha, I share that feeling. Once something is wrong and I can't figure it out, it's not even about fixing it so much as knowing WHAT was wrong. Not sure if those settings are also available on the new ROM I'm trying now (GamerzROM, oddly enough I was going to port it for the captivate this weekend but I guess the devs beat me too it). If I see them while I'm playing around today I'll shoot you a PM.
But the fact that C-ROM works great, even though it's built off Slim (I think), puzzles me completely. Have you tried any other version of Slim?

Its just so annoying as I don't know a lot but I am trying to learn.
And thanks that would be fantastic actually. I appreciate it. :3
No I haven't I've tried CM 10 stable, Avatar, Pac-ROM (very fun ROM so many settings to mess with), C-ROM, Xylon, and Slim.

[Q] Screen burn?

Hi guys, I tried charging my phone while it is turned off. After 20 mins, I get back to check it , it was very hot and has a white patch on the black screen.
I am running on Official CM10.1 Nightly 04/17. Any idea what caused this? Will this go away or do I need to send it in for repairs?

I hope they set in cyanogenmod the charging current not to high. Because if it´s to high it can damage the battery an maybe other components.
I read something in another thread, somebody set it to 1,55 A.
It has its reason why LG sets it not to high.
@anGel_pLayer
let cool it down, and see what happens then

In my opinion, Nightlies are not trustable...
And I think that, only when someone gets a damaged device, people will start to think twice
before install it.

This was my first time charging on nightly with the phone turned off...
The white patch is gone... But, I can still see the "grid-like" distortion on the display where the patch was... Will, try to wait this out for a day or two...
This maybe could serve as warning to others..

That's BS, a nightly may contain bugs of course but they won't include any extreme system changes without telling you. This is just an unlucky flaw, my phone has randomly started scorching while charging, on stock ROM so its not the CM teams fault. On the other hand fastcharge in the kernel is risky, but the official nightlies definitely don't have this

I agree with you but, If that happends in ICS or JB, can be resolved with LG Service (inside of warranty).
In CM I don't think soo... even because it means that bootloader was unlocked.
While CM is not stable/official whatever, everything but a nightly, I recomend people to keep bootloader the way it is, locked.
Don't make any sense to risk when there's nothing 100% functional, I'm talking about ROMs of course. Only official ICS and JB are
stable and 100% functional.
I unlocked mine and I try everything because I don't care. The phone can even explode, I'll buy other... But for a lot of people
it's not so easy.
Apart of that... a big thanks to the CM Team and all devs, I hope they find a stable ROM for O4X.

Ouch. That doesn't look good.
The official CM doesn't have any kernel changes, so it's likely a hardware fault (e.g. short on circuit board) causing overheating. Should get it serviced if it's still under warranty.

After like around 6 hours, the effects of the damage was gone and i decided to charge it again, it charged normally. I really don't know what caused it.

When I saw the pictures my heart dropped to my feet. I didn't know this could happen.. Seems like some weird glitch and I've seen other people post about this same issue but I've been on CM since the 2nd nightly and I haven't had this issue happen to me, thank god.

I realized that it gets hot when it is turned off and I charge, too...
But I never had those awkward problems... Let's hope that it only happened once

If the phone is turned off, then the charger chip either is bypassed or not configured properly, since the CPU is off and there's no kernel running. Also thermal protection is done by reading a separate temperature sensor in the kernel then reconfiguring the charger. You would think LG has considered this not uncommon scenario though...

I don't know if you guys had seen my thread about exactly the same thing happening to me, first ac charge on cm10, left my phone for about 10 minutes came back to see the whole left hand side of the screen looked exactly the same as the op's with lines running through it also.
I was devastated lol only had the phone 2 weeks, but it fixed itself over time and within 12 hours the screen was completely back to normal.
I believe the cm10.1 nightlies are missing the lg thermal throttling that the stock firmware had (im only assuming of course) , when the phone got too hot while charging it would slow charge. Doesn't seem to do this with cm10.
Since then ive only charge via a usb port and haven't had any issues at all.
Edit: My phone was turned on when this took place.

On stock ROM this didn't happen so, I guessed CM caused it. But really, I don't know

Is it possible to change the charge current in CM settings?

notice the difference between graphical image of stock rom's off-line charging and the one that goes with CM10.1 ? the stock roms came with nice colourful battery animated image, while CM10.1 only came with small white-colored animated battery..
I think there's something missing in the CM10.1 bootimage.. but on my O4X that overheat or white patch didn't happened. I've try several nightlies ( 20 - 28 april)
but still use stock JB for daily usage..
